almost 2 year old dd said 'no' for the first time

Skruffy

we told her she had to put her binky back in her crib and she said NO! and just stood there. I wanted to stop and cry for a minute because it was such a milestone but then I had to be the mom in charge again. I have a feeling in a few weeks I'm not going to think it's so cute.

I am shocked you made it to almost 2 y/o without getting, 'No!'.  Way to go mama!

Seriously!! After da-da and woof, it was DD's next word. I went in to tuck her in last night and she even said it in her sleep, lol.

Way to go!  Now it will be her favorite word!

I have to say, the fact that she is almost 2 and has just tried out saying "no" for the first time is amazing!  Maybe she's just a really laid back kid??

My DD was stubborn and precocious; she started with that at around 14 months!

It took my DS a little longer; he's more mellow and naturally cooperative, but I'm sure he was no more than 18 months when he started to verbally defy me.

We just started with the big defiant no's in our house. I'm not too happy about it.
